There are two pendulum bobs, one has a bob of mass 1 kg and the other has a bob of mass 2 kg. One of the pendulum's string is twice in length than the other.
Will they fall in the same time?
Yes irrespective of the mass ( within limits ) the rate of acceleration is the same 9.81 m/sec^2 on Earth. Of course that is dependent on the wind resistance of each bob.
Yes sir, but what about the length of the strings. How do they affect it?
@ Vanshika Singh;;;
my dear Vanshika Singh they fall in the same time when dropped from the same height at the same time. length of the strings does not matter here...
do you have any specific observation about this acceptable question which you asked?
what about the different displacements of the bobs, because of different string lengths
@ Vanshika Singh;;;
my dear Vanshika Singh why do they displace differently?
